Cam Selection 360
A exact duplicate? LMAO! Wasn’t the OEM cam on a 114? This one on a 110. Then there’s more lift. Have you checked the overlap specs? How about valve timing points?
Exact duplicate my ***!
If will provide more torque and HP. Just a nudge more.
That is a slight nudge more than a stock cam. Expect stock 2bbl. type of performance. It should provide a little more torque off idle. If your looking for stock like performance, that’s not a bad choice.
When I first used the 360-2 cam in a 318, I looked like and hard at the comp 252 and the stock 360-2 cam specs the stock cam in a few years worth of Mopar factory service manuals and specs found in catalogs both paper and online versions (such as summit/jegs websites) and it's been a while since I've looked at these documents, but I remember at the time, being quite surprised that between the 2 cams, unless my info had a misprint somewhere that yeah these cams were totally IDENTICAL except for that 0.015" in overall lift.
A misprint is totally possible as I have a new never been installed, MP RT+10 cam for the magnum engines that MP made in the 90s and I get 2 different LSA specs on it depending on where I look, for the same cam. I forget the exact LSA on that cam, but it's less than what some advertise for it as being, which is 119* I think it's supposed to say 109*.
Can't remember now, it's been a while since I looked into it. I just remembered seeing it listed somewhere, and thinking it didn't look right/ and looked at numbers for that same cam elsewhere and found the real numbers.
But in 3 season daily drivers, for How I use them, that 360-2 cam works well for me in a "cruiser" 318. And the difference in specs vs difference in cost of a Melling SPD 25 , 360-2 stock replacement vs a COMP 252 the difference isn't enough between them, to justify paying double for the COMP name.
